Bishop Castle is located in south central Colorado on State Highway
165 approximately 12 miles southeast of the junction of SH 96 and SH 165. Officially, the castle's address is 12705 State Highway 165, Colorado. Also officially, the local politicians have fought tooth and nail to try to eliminate it.
The castle is being constructed by a single man, Jim Bishop. The castle
has been under construction since 1969 and continues to be a work in
progress. The castle is open to visitors on a true donation basis. The
castle is a monument to what a hard-working individual can accomplish
in a lifetime.

The following photographs were taken
during a trip to the castle in August 1998. A second
(non-indexed) set of photographs are available from
June 1999.
(The images castle1.jpg and castle2.jpg were
purchased at the gift shop.)
